Liu Yuntian waved his hand, and many items on the ground flew up and fell into the storage ring in his hand.

He murmured softly: "Maybe I'm overthinking..."

Then he stood up, walked to the window, gently opened a corner of the window, and looked outside.

However, the mysterious man did not appear outside the window, and even his breath disappeared without a trace the moment he stepped out of the door.

Ruyi didn't seem to be overly concerned about this little episode. She stretched out her slender jade hand and tapped the table gently, attracting Liu Yuntian's attention.

He asked, "When can the salt and sugar be delivered?"

Liu Yuntian turned around, thought for a moment, and replied: "It will be transported to the Holy Land tonight."

Since storage rings have limited storage space and are expensive to make, even a non-restricted storage ring produced in Northern Frontier requires a large amount of space-attribute spirit stones to create.

Therefore, it is not usually used to transport large quantities of goods such as salt and sugar, but traditional handling methods are used instead.

"tonight?"

Ruyi frowned and asked doubtfully, "It shouldn't be possible to get there in one day, right?"

Liu Yuntian shook his head slightly and said slowly: "When I sent out the invitations, I had already ordered people to transport all the salt and sugar out."

Hearing this, Ruyi was stunned, her mouth slightly open, not knowing what to say.

What does it mean to send food and fodder before troops move forward?

In other words, Liu Yuntian had already anticipated everything that happened today?

Suddenly, a feeling of being plotted against came over Ruyi, and she felt a chill on her back.

Could it be that he could even guess that I would agree to this?

You know, when Liu Yuntian told her about this, she didn't even know that she would agree to it.

"Did you guess...that I would agree?" she asked hesitantly.

However, Liu Yuntian still looked out the window, as if her problem was just a trivial matter.

After a while, he whispered, "Don't think too much of me."

"If you are a smart person, you will definitely agree. If you don't agree, my salt and sugar can continue to set off and continue to sell in southern Xinjiang."

Ruyi nodded thoughtfully. This explanation was quite reasonable.

But there is something illogical about this.

That is such a large amount of salt and sugar that it is absolutely impossible for a mortal to consume it.

Moreover, the salt sold to mortals must be mixed with soil. The amount of salt and soil mixed together is even more difficult for mortals to digest.

But since Liu Yuntian said so, she couldn't ask too much.

For some things, if others are willing to give you reasons, it is already a kind of respect for you.

If you try to get to the bottom of things, you will only end up suffering.

.........

In an inconspicuous alley in Qiyang City.

A mysterious man looked around cautiously, and after walking around in a big circle cautiously, he turned around and entered a house.

At this moment, there was a strong man in tight clothes sitting in the yard. He had a long ponytail tied casually on his head and fixed it with a strap around his forehead, looking very capable.

He slowly turned around, and as expected, it was the face that Liu Yuntian had been thinking about day and night - Qi Xing.

He looked at the mysterious masked man calmly and asked in a low voice, "Did you send it?"

However, the mysterious man did not answer his question immediately, but stood there quietly. After a moment of silence, he took action.

He raised his hand and gently took off the mask, revealing a face covered with criss-crossing scars.

He nodded slightly, indicating that he had completed his task, and said, "He guessed it was you."

Hearing this, Qi Xing did not show any surprise or surprise, but nodded as if it was a matter of course.

He responded: "If he can't guess it, then he is not Liu Gong..."

Then, the mysterious man lifted the hood on his head and walked over to sit next to Qi Xing.

At the same time, he took out a pill bottle from his arms and gently placed it on the table in front of him.

The mysterious man said to Qi Xing: "This is what he gave me. It's a Nascent Soul Pill."

Qi Xing did not reach out to take it, but just looked at the pill bottle silently.

The mysterious man continued, "Your cultivation is all built up by using inferior pills. If you don't use this Nascent Soul Pill, it will be difficult for you to breed a Nascent Soul and become a powerful Nascent Soul."

Qi Xing sneered, then picked up the wine bowl on the table in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.

Some of the wine flowed down his chin and soaked his collar.

"Nascent Soul...a lifespan of a thousand years..." Qi Xing muttered to himself, as if he was thinking about the meaning of life.

His eyes were empty, as if he had become indifferent to life and death.

"If there are no more important people in the world, what is the use of having a long life?" He continued to talk to himself.

"Just a walking skeleton."

There was a bitter smile on his face, as if he felt despair about his fate.

The mysterious man looked at Qi Xing, the scar on his face twitched slightly, and he seemed to want to say something, but finally held back.

"Don't you have a younger brother?" The mysterious man finally spoke, breaking the silence.

When Qi Xing heard this, the expression on his face became more complicated, showing both longing and pain.

"You... aren't going to look for him anymore?" There was a hint of concern in the mysterious man's voice.

Qi Xing shook his head, a trace of despair flashed in his eyes, "There are many Jinyiwei walking on the Qiyang Continent..."

"Even Liu Gong can't find the person... can I... still find him?" Qi Xing's voice was full of confusion.

The mysterious man nodded woodenly and pursed his lips, as if he was not surprised by Qi Xing's answer.

He looked up at Qi Xing, then lowered his eyes and said, "He asked me to bring a message..."

Qi Xing immediately became interested when he heard this. He stopped the wine bowl in his hand and turned to ask, "What did you say?"

"He said... Qi Xing, how have you been recently...?" The mysterious man said this slowly.

After hearing this, Qi Xing's body shook slightly and the wine bowl in his hand almost fell.

His eyes became a little moist and his lips trembled slightly. He wanted to say something, but no sound came out.

Finally, he sighed deeply, drank the wine in the bowl, and then sat there silently, lost in thought.

Qi Xing raised the wine bowl in his hand, raised his head and drank it all, then wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth with his hand.

He stared ahead with a blank look in his eyes and said, "I'm...fine."
